Star Trek - too good?

Has anyone seen the new Star Trek movie? I'm planning to see it at some point.

Trekkies Bash New Star Trek Film As 'Fun, Watchable'

Slumdog - go see it

We saw Slumdog Millionaire last night. Wow! What a movie!
It is not for the faint of heart - there are some pretty brutal scenes about the main character's childhood, growing up an orphan, living on his wits in the slums of Bombay/Mumbai. Jamil goes on Who Wants to be a Millionaire? and because he does do well he's accused of cheating. After all, how could a tea boy from the slums know anything?

I've been to India twice, but this certainly was not the India that I experienced being whisked from one fancy hotel to another by a private driver.

Star-struck

I've never been one, even as a teenager, to have a favorite movie star, but there's something about Angelina Jolie. Is the bod? the Brad? the boldness to adopt kids from here and there? the way she seems to be so sure?

Vanity Fair has an interview with her this month.
